JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Provincial National Narcotics Agency (BNNP) has arrested three networks of Methamphetamine suppliers to Kampung Bahari, North Jakarta.

From the results of the arrest of 7 suspects, it is known that they consist of different networks. And evidence of narcotics types of methamphetamine that were successfully confiscated were 2 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine and 1 kilogram of marijuana from three networks.

"There are three networks and one expedition. The first network involves smuggling drugs using thick iron pipes from Sumatra to Jakarta", said the Head of Jakarta BNNP Commissioner Monang Sidabuke to VOI, Tuesday, May 31.

The suspect smuggled the methamphetamine using a thick iron pipe so that X-Ray rays and sniffer dogs could not detect it.

"This includes the international network, the Golden Triangle if you look at the packaging. Those sent via Sumatra are here", he said.

Commissioner Monang explained that when compared to last year the network numbers remained the same. The evidence circulated from this network is quite high. However, the evidence obtained by the BNNP was only 2 kg (Methamphetamine), while from the suspect's statement the amount was quite large.

"Regarding this disclosure, the target is all to be circulated in Kampung Bahari. This is only a supplier group. We National Narcotics Agency focus on the network, we monitor the network", he said.

Of the 7 perpetrators who were arrested, they were couriers and dealers of methamphetamine to the Kampung Bahari area, North Jakarta. DKI Jakarta BNNP officers are also still hunting for drug dealers who are the main suppliers to the three networks.

"The perpetrators are charged with Articles 114 and 112 of the Narcotics Law with a maximum threat of the death penalty", he said.

Meanwhile, from the results of the mapping of the DKI Jakarta BNNP, in Jakarta, 77 sub-districts are still prone to the distribution of methamphetamine.

"DKI has 77 villages or sub-districts that are prone to drugs, these have been mapped and have been researched. For supervision, we are trying to reduce it because there is a shining village method with the hope that every year it will continue to decrease (the number of villages prone to drugs)", he said.
